Jody and I took my dad out to Snowbird on Thursday. Pamela,the person who sells the rocks, remembered us as usual. She's SO nice and likes Jody and my dad a lot. When Jody asked if we could just bring him up sometime and reuse sand (to save money), she actually went and got a bag full of used sand. She said that George was special and that she doesn't do this for anyone else. My dad wasn't too enthusiastic about the rocks at the beginning but got into it toward the end of the bag. He kept looking through the sand even after the gems were all taken out. And good thing, a marketing person (Gwen) came over and took pictures of him and chose his photo for the photo of the day. It was put on Snowbird's webpage and facebook. His photo got about 60 "likes" within a couple of hours!
